Here is a demo of the Polyphase I made for some people at Haunting Mids
The hiss is from my recording set up, not from my amp or my polyphase FYI http://download.yousendit.com/B8AE81D81B106B03 |
I'm getting a deluxe memory man from a hcfxer!

Yeah, I'm just lazy. I actually have a soundclick. |
I just paid for a Deluxe Memory Man! I had one for 2 days a while ago, but I'm ready again.
|
Cool man. I just got a Bad Monkey in the mail for winning 2nd place in Beavis's contest. It actually sounds pretty good.

Oh, and he gave me a few bags full of potentiometers, capacitors, switches, ICs, etc.

contest? something on HC? |
No matter which kind of "playing style" one could be after, you effects conosseurs which effects would suggest for a bass player? Whitout adventuring into reeeeally strange things (imagine a guitar+bass+drums band, not necessarily too heavily bass driven), which effects "complement" well the sound of a bass in your opinion?
I know this is quite a "generic" question, but I'm curious to hear your "generic" ideas on the matter ha ha :) . |
If I was going to tell a bassist to get 3 pedals, I'd tell him:
Get a Danelectro French Toast for fuzz a DOD-250 for overdrive and a Electro-Harmonix Clone Theory for chorus and vibrato (that also happens to be what Peter Hook used) |
thanks a lot... I'll investigate on those (I'm not at all an effect expert, but I feel like experimenting with a larger "spectrum" of sounds with my bass, your suggestions are greatly appreciated).
|
CHOUT, try this out with your polyphase!
feedback all the way up, LFO mode, square wave, speed at 3 o clock, start all the way right, stop all the way left. Plug in the expression pedal, push forward so that you don't hear any phasing. Put on a short echo and maybe a little dirt. Play some major chords and slowly pull back on the expression pedal then push forward and cut the LFO movement when you change chords and repeat. It sounds so damn cool. |

I can't wait to get the memory man, it's got the built in transformer/power cord...I wonder how hard it is to diy TB these...I know from experience this pedal could use it. Haha, and I'm getting oneenna those new mms soon too. I'm trading my Turbo Rat for a russian small stone and bassballs this weekend...I don't really need 'em but hopefully they'll be cool...never really used a bassballs. |
Bassballs is cool, I played around with it for a few minutes at a store recently. Sort of like the filter section on the microsynth I think.
|
hmm, i heard some clips of it and they all sounded badass
stereo pulsar arriving somewhere around thursday |

i always found tremolo to be sexy on bass. I like wah on bass, its so growly and stuff. Like Kim G's |
But you gotta get the right wah for bass, otherwise. . .
|
I like how yuor signature complements every sentence you end with "..." in your posts Julian :D!!
he he, another little question, what's a fair price for a dod 250 in your opinion? I'm checking some auctions and online stores, I hate the fact that in usd they cost a really reasonable price but I have to pay roughly the same amout to have them shipped over here, argh... |

it sounds like ass. (there's the ending for it) Quote:
uHH, I think they're fairly cheap, list price is around 40 bucks. Its not that expensive. Just ask a store close to you (that sells pedals) if they have it, they might not have it in stock so they'd order it. It's a killer overdrive though... Look who uses it: ![]() That's Steve Turner's, if you wanna know. Thats an awesome board my itself, it like has all these plugs and stuf. |

damn!
Recently I haven't been using distortion becuz my amp is shitting the bed. Sounds quite distorted no matter what. Pretty good sound however. |
That's a true gearhead.

I traded my Turbo Rat (+ $20) for a Russian Small Stone and Bass Balls today, and the dude gave me a free vintage MXR Flanger! It's a little noisey but it sounds sweet! I can't believe he just gave it to me...
|

Here's the goods

I wanna flanger sooo bad. I wonder when the BYOC is gonna come out.

I butchered this 20 dollar guitar's headstock tonight. It had those cheap plastic tuners that I put on the Hari Kari Krishna. The new tuners didn't quite fit. So I made them fit.
This guitar actually stays in tune, is intonated well, and sounds good surprisingly. ![]() I am gonna put some photocells hooked up to stereo jacks in the pickguard so that your hand movement over the strings while strumming can control an expression pedal. Notice where I had to put the 6th tuner. |
That looks like the perfect guitar for butchering...where did you get that one?
|
My Dad found it somewhere.
|
you should put a hole in it so you can fuck it while you are playing a gig.
|
That would be hilarious.
